Chapter 260 Just Sleep Together
Under the yellow light of the lamp, Long Tianyu gave the man standing before him a rather hostile look.
He had feminine features but was tall and lanky. However, unlike his usual style, he was clad in a plain-colored suit. In addition, the sinister look in his eyes had been replaced by a tinge of helplessness.
“You know very well that I can’t control him. This is why I had resorted to working together with you.”
If not for the fact that Lin ngya was so exhausted, she would have realized what was going on and be greatly astonished. This man before them was none other than Xin Li, the most repulsive man she had ever known.
However, the “Xin Li” standing across from Long Tianyu, was apparently a regular and normal man. The two n appeared the sa at a glance.
After Long Tianyu glanced at Lin ngya, he folded in the corner of her blanket then led the man out of the room into the external room.
Although the sky was completely bright by now, Long Tianyu had instructed all the people not to wake her before Lin ngya woke up naturally on her own. His intention was for her to have a good rest.
Therefore, even when the people had to move around the courtyard, they would do so quietly.
“I’m not interested to know about your family affairs. What I know now is that your younger brother almost killed my consort. How shall we settle this debt?”
Xin Li’s elder brother, no, it would be more apt to call him Xin Li, smiled a bitter smile. It was totally out of his expectation that his brother’s condition would worsen and reach this state.
“He is my shadow. I will shoulder the mistake he made. However, the one adopted by your consort is the crux of this problem.”
Long Tianyu was sitting on the chair as he gazed at his working partner. Since half a month ago, Xin Li, the heir of the Xin family, had sent n to contact him.
It was then that Long Tianyu realized that the head of the Xin family in each generation actually consisted of a pair of twin brothers.
Therefore, the man who wanted to kill Lin ngya a mont ago was, in fact, Xin Ming, Xin Li’s twin brother. Not having seen Xin Li’s licentious manner at the end, he thought that Xin Ming rely wanted Lin ngya’s life.
“I won’t allow you to take her away. Moreover, she is now the adopted daughter of the Lin family. We both know Marquis Zhennan’s temperant. Your elder brother was the one who broke our mutual agreent. I would suggest you leave Dajin with your n right now.”
Long Tianyu had t both twin brothers.
Of the twins, one was feminine and elegant, while the other was vicious and ruthless. Although they looked almost identical, it was easy to tell them apart from their manners and personality.
Besides, he had agreed to work together with Xin Li so he would increase his chances of victory when he later stood up against the Crown Prince. However, if Long Tianyu were to request him to act against his own interests, Long Tianyu was afraid that he might be backbitten by these two brothers.
“I am happy to leave, but I have to bring along the lass. This is the Lieyun Empire’s affair, I hope you don’t interfere with it.”
Xin Li’s expression changed slightly and there was coldness in his eyes when he realized that Long Tianyu was not going to budge. It appeared that he was ready to turn against Long Tianyu if his reply was negative.
Little did he expect that Long Tianyu would turn around and look deeply into his eyes and say, “Your younger brother seed to be injured. My n had been following him all the while. I suppose you would follow him to his death if he dies or even becos paralyzed.”
There was a hint of mockery and cruelty in Long Tianyu’s voice.
He was not going to be a saint if soone stepped on his toes. Death might be the most rciful outco in such a case.
As he folded his arms, he was not even a teeny bit worried that this venomous snake would turn around to bite him. He had long removed the fangs full of venom before dancing with a viper.
“You— My brother is not your regular person, don’t provoke him into anger. It would be disastrous!”
Xin Li had been disquieted in his heart since. In fact, from the ti he left Lie Yun, Xin Ming’s condition worsened because he did not take the dication that was a secret recipe passed down from his ancestors.
If he did not return to the old mansion in ti, both he and Xin Ming might die in Dajin.
Although the Xin Family had laid their future hopes on the two brothers, however, given that the Xin Family was such an extensive family, the two brothers were not the only ones who were the prospective heirs.
If Xin Ming really t with so accident, he could only bla it on fate.
“I’m naturally aware of this, which is why I want you to consider it carefully. You can choose to go back and continue being the young master of the Xin family, or you may stay behind with Xin Ming. Anyway, there is still much space in Dajin to bury both of your corpses.”
At Long Tianyu’s outright threats, Xin Li decided not to act against him in order to prevent harm to the innocent.
Although Xin Ming was a venomous person, his life would be sapped every ti he had an outbreak. Once his life ca to an end, he would be buried in a grave all the sa.
In fact, it was easy to make a decision between his future fate and life and death. Despite his reluctance, he eventually turned to leave abruptly.
“I have made myself very clear. Do not try to do anything funny right in front of . The man whom you sent to assassinate Lin Zhongyu is now dead. I would suggest you leave right now.”
Long Tianyu was sure that he saw Xin Li’s body jerk as he left, but he did not turn around and just walked away in big strides.
The light from the lamps flickered while dawn had arrived quietly.
The twins Xin Li and Xin Ming had taken Long Tianyu by surprise.
Long Tianyu was not feeling tired yet, but curiously, he walked into the inner room where Lin ngya was. As he gazed at Lin ngya, who was curled up in the corner, he instinctively went forward and wrapped himself around this warm and delicate body while he was still fully dressed.
Imdiately, the fragrance of Lin ngya filled his nostrils, and all of a sudden, he was overco by fatigue. He closed eyes and fell into a deep sleep instantly.
Even in her sleep, Lin ngya was not truly resting. She could feel her mind raging.
Ever since the insertion of the microchip, she longer slept soundly. She would very often be woken up by the sound of an alarm. However, for so unknown reason, she actually slept through the night until daybreak this ti.
Lin ngya’s mind was awake before she fully woke up. When she realized that she had just managed to sleep soundly that night, she suddenly rembered the words of her teacher back in modern tis.
“The brain is the most complicated part of the human body. Despite rapid dical advancent, there is no machine that could replace the brain. The brain-transcending radar had been designed through complicated and precise skills and was ant to simulate the programs of the brain. Therefore, its primary purpose is to extend and expand the brain function. No one knows how it would develop if it is successful.”
In other words, the warning function she was using was, in fact, one of the simplest functions.
Wait, why did she feel that soone’s claws were on her waist?
Lin ngya opened her eyes to see a face in deep sleep.
This person’s lashes were long and casting faint shadows on his face and his lips were pursed. Lin ngya looked carefully and realized that he was not even drooling in his sleep. No wonder he was Long Tianyu.
She supposed no one would ever dislike such a sleeping countenance.
However... why was he in her bed?
“Ah— You, get up! Long Tianyu, are you trying to take advantage of ? Do you call yourself a hero?”
Lin ngya sprang up imdiately, blushing. She pointed at Long Tianyu as she raised her voice at him.
Hehehehe... Lin ngya quickly looked down at herself and was grateful that she was still fully dressed. However, this was not the most important problem. The problem was why Long Tianyu was sleeping with her.
Batting his eyelids, Long Tianyu finally woke up from his sleep, still groggy. After glancing at Lin ngya, Long Tianyu pushed himself up with his arms to a sitting position on the bed.
“I was too exhausted last night, sorry.”
Long Tianyu’s voice was deep and a little hoarse from the sleep. It sounded so alluring and soothing that Lin ngya felt as if she had turned into a kitten that had been comforted, then her anger was abated.
“Last night... Oh, I rember now. Long Tianyu, let tell you, that Xin Li—”
“Elder Sister, Elder Sister, are you awake?”
The voice of Lin Zhongyu echoed from outside the room just when she was about to tell Long Tianyu about Xin Li’s condition.
Xiaoyu was not aware that Xin Li had attempted to kill her the day before. She was not going to let Xiaoyu find out about it anyway.
“Promise not to tell Xiaoyu about how I was almost killed by Xin Li. Otherwise, he would bla himself for it,” Lin ngya whispered, lowering her head.
Long Tianyu nodded without hesitation and this made Lin ngya’s face break into a big smile.
Thereafter, Lin ngya crossed over Long Tianyu and ran out of to the outer room to open the door.
Long Tianyu lay down on the huge, warm bed. He could still sll the fragrant scent of Lin ngya in the air.
Long Tianyu was suddenly distracted by the thought that he had given in to Lin ngya’s request once again. He had lost count of the tis he did this.
Lin ngya opened the door and was instantly embraced by a pair of slender arms.
“Are you alright, Elder Sister?” asked Lin Zhongyu, who burrowed his head into her shoulders.
His muffled voice seed to be quivering.
Lin ngya patted Xiaoyu’s shoulders gently. She heard Baisu say that the five n were Xiaoyu’s personal guards. Although Xin Li was dealing with Lin ngya at that ti, she could imagine how Xiaoyu was also having a hard ti simultaneously.
“I’m all right. They were just so insignificant bad guys. With the sly fox by my side, no one could do harm!”
Lin Zhongyu lifted his head and appeared to want to say sothing to her, but eventually stopped himself.
Last night, he suffered great casualties in that many of his loyal guards died in the hands of the man. As he watched his guards fighting to protect him without showing any fear one after another, his hardened heart finally lted.
“I have sothing to tell you, Elder Sister.”
Lin Zhongyu appeared to have made up his mind on sothing very important as he spoke to Lin ngya in a serious tone of voice.
“What is it? You sound very serious.”
Lin Zhongyu stole a glance at Lin ngya and stamred, “Those n... I am referring to those n who were protecting , they... they want to return to my country.”
